Glory, Wisdom, and Might
There is much pride and arrogance in our world today. So much so that many in their pride exalt themselves over others, and especially over God Himself. We can often live as though we know what is best for our lives; better than God knows. We hear it in questions: "Why does God allow that …
The Grace of the LORD
"And therefore will the LORD wait, that He may be gracious unto you, and therefore will He be exalted, that He may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for Him. For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: …
The Valley of Vision
For the Valley of Vision “In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off: for the LORD hath spoken it.” Isaiah 22:25 (KJV) From chapter 13 of …
That They May Know
There is a big difference in Scripture for man to know that God is the LORD; and for men to know themselves to be but men. However, both are clearly tied together. Before one can know the Living GOD one must realize their feebleness before God. We must realize that we need God. He does …
A Caveat On Judgments

Remembering Mothers
Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. She …

Will We Never Learn?
"And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed." Numbers 16:48 (KJB) A company of three - Korah, Dathan, and Abiram challenged the authority of Moses and Aaron in Numbers 16:1-40. They would learn quite quickly that God will judge such rebellion, and the LORD opened the earth and swallowed …
The First Fire
"The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out." Leviticus 6:13(KJV) The question you may raise concerning this verse is, "What fire?" The answer to that question is that it has to do with the fire of the altar of burnt offering. That is the altar near the entrance of …

Explanation of All Things
And with many such parables spake He the word unto them, as they were able to hear it. But without a parable spake He not unto them: and when they were alone, He expounded all things to His disciples. Mark 4:33-34 (KJV) It has been said, speaking of the parables of Jesus, that, “A parable …
The LORD’S Goodness, Mercy and Love
